Bang bang bang!

Chen Luo was suddenly awakened from his sleep. There was a sound coming from the wall near the closet, like someone hitting the wall with a blunt object. The sound was low, and faintly like minced meat being hit by a hammer, but when listening carefully, it didn't seem like that.

Someone is smashing the wall!

Renovation in the middle of the night? No! The tube building is an old residential area. If someone is renovating, some materials will definitely be piled up on the first floor. The staircase will not be so clean, and there will be some cement dust left. The most important thing is that the timing is wrong. Among the residents in the old residential area, a large part are elderly people. These elderly people have very light sleep and will be woken up by the slightest noise. If someone is renovating in the middle of the night, these elderly people can crush the threshold of the property.

Chen Luo quickly got up and took out an iron rod from under the bed. He had prepared this iron rod some time ago, which was taken from a scrap lathe. In order to get this iron rod, he also asked Bai Xiaochuan for help.

Bang Bang

The sound still didn't stop.

Chen Luo took the iron rod and slowly retreated to the door. He stared at the wall, but he didn't put his ear against the wall to listen. If the opponent's hammer broke through the wall and flew out, listening to the wall might be fatal.

He is just an ordinary person now and should not take risks.

The state of this Heart Demon Tribulation is very strange, and no one can be sure whether dying here will affect the main body. Therefore, the best way to face unknown dangers is not to rush forward, but to protect yourself first and then seek a solution.

The wall-smashing behavior lasted for more than ten minutes before gradually fading away.

When Chen Luo thought everything was over, a voice suddenly came through the wall.

"I can already smell you."

The voice was hoarse, low, and without any emotion. Even though there was a wall between them, Chen Luo felt his heart palpitate. Although he couldn't see behind the wall, he clearly felt a pair of eyes.

These eyes were exactly the same as the ones he had sensed when he entered the community before!

Inner demon?

Why doesn’t it feel like that!

"Who are you?"

Tightening the iron rod in his hand, Chen Luo asked.

I have been in this place for more than a month, but I have not found any clues to the power. If I want to break through the calamity of the inner demon, I must find the 'inner demon' and take the initiative to face the calamity.

Overcome tribulation!

Only by overcoming the tribulation can one break the tribulation. If one does not overcome the tribulation, one will never be able to escape. Taoist Rong Ling had proved this in the past.

"wait for me."

The voice on the other side did not answer Chen Luo's question, but left a message and then disappeared silently. Chen Luo waited for more than ten minutes, and only relaxed after he was sure that the other party had left. For safety reasons, he did not return to the bedroom, but sat on the sofa in the middle of the living room.

This location is in the middle of the house, so he has room to buffer if the wall is broken anywhere.

Holding the iron rod, Chen Luo closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

He waited until the sun shone through the window before he felt relieved. Based on the experience of the previous month, it was safe during the day.

After encountering such a thing, Chen Luo had no intention of going to school. He made up an excuse that he had a cold, asked Bai Xiaochuan to ask for leave for him, and then turned off his phone.

Arriving at his next-door neighbor's house, he peeked in through the corridor window.

The house next door has two bedrooms facing south, with its back facing the staircase. There is an old window next to the staircase, with window paper pasted inside the glass to block the view from outside. This structure is rare in new houses, but it is a very common type of house in old houses.

Chen Luo stood by the window and observed for a while, and found a loose gap at the edge.

I leaned on the glass and looked inside.

The house was completely dark. Even in the daytime, the curtains were drawn, and only some outlines could be vaguely seen. Chen Luo had good eyesight, so he could see the situation relatively clearly. Inside was a living room, which was covered with dust. The furniture and TV were covered with sheets, which were covered with dust, and it looked like no one had lived there for a long time. Chen Luo took a special look at the wall and found that the wall was intact, without any marks, and there was no possibility of being hit by a stone hammer.

This made Chen Luo frown slightly.

The wall next to his bedroom is the living room. Judging from the sound last night, the wall here should be severely damaged. But the actual situation is completely different from what he heard. The house next door has not been damaged at all, which conflicts with the sound he heard last night.

"strangeness."

Gathering his thoughts, Chen Luo picked up his bag and went downstairs.

Imagination alone cannot solve the problem. The sound he heard yesterday is most likely the calamity he will face. Before the calamity comes, he must gain enough power.

He is going to the library today. He has been here for more than a month and has already understood the basic situation. All that remains is to broaden his horizons.

A lot of information that cannot be found on the Internet is recorded in large libraries.

After going downstairs and having breakfast, he boarded the bus to the library. Having missed the morning rush hour, the bus was very empty. When Chen Luo boarded the bus, there were only two people on the bus. An old lady carrying a basket of vegetables and a little girl with dyed blonde hair. Both of them were busy with their own things and didn't even look at Chen Luo.

'Ding, student card.'

A familiar voice sounded, and Chen Luo found a seat at the back and sat down.

"Next stop, Qingyang Palace. Passengers who are getting on the bus please go to the back."

The bus stop announcement sounded. Chen Luo didn't pay attention to it. His attention was now focused on the sound he encountered last night.

From the time he met those eyes more than a month ago to the time he made contact with them last night, there were nearly twenty-nine days in between. This blank period allowed Chen Luo to have a clearer understanding of this world, and it was precisely because of this understanding that he became more confused.

Compared to the previous mental tribulations, this experience was more like a real world.

Although he kept emphasizing the "heart demon tribulation" to himself, he would always subconsciously forget it. Especially in the past two days, he began to adapt to life here. The experience of the immortal world seemed to be covered by a layer of white gauze and was gradually fading away. Occasionally, strange thoughts would even pop up in his mind, such as.

"There has never been any immortal cultivation world, nor has there been any practice of cultivating with the help of brains."

'It was just a dream.'

'How is it possible in the real world for someone to borrow someone else's brain?'

Similar thoughts kept coming up, shaking his mind. He leaned his head against the car window, closed his eyes and rested, his brain was highly active, and strange questions kept popping up.

"You are in danger now."

A voice suddenly continued in Chen Luo's ears. He woke up instantly and his hands involuntarily grabbed the backpack beside him.

"Don't be nervous. If I wanted to kill you, you would have been dead long ago."

Chen Luo then saw clearly that the person talking to him was the little girl in the car before, and even the old woman with the basket sat in front of him. The two people looked at him curiously, as if they were looking at a gorilla.

"You're a lucky guy. Did you encounter a nightmare?"

The old woman also spoke. She looked at Chen Luo with a smile. Her eyes were full of love, just like a grandmother looking at her grandson.

nightmare?

Chen Luo finally heard a different term, something he had not found on the Internet before. He looked at the two people, then at the bus driver in front of him, without saying anything. It seemed that these two people had some special means to prevent the bus driver in front from seeing them.

"If you want to survive, go to Qingyang Palace. The Great Library can't save you."

The little girl took out a card and handed it to Chen Luo. It was the first time for the three of them to meet, and no one trusted anyone else. In this case, the best thing to do was to leave contact information. When they contacted each other again in the future, they would not be as vigilant as they are now, and at least they would have a preliminary understanding.

"What's your name?"

After receiving the card, Chen Luo asked.

"He Min."

"Call me Granny Hu."

The old woman and the little girl both said their names. When Chen Luo heard these two names, he subconsciously looked at them again.

He Min is the first fellow sister Chen Luo met after he entered the world of immortal cultivation.

Later, when he returned to Yue, Chen Luo went to see this old friend. Unfortunately, time flies and beauty fades. When he went back, He Min was no longer there. Not to mention Granny Hu, who was the first Jindan cultivator Chen Luo met, and the experience in Fox Mountain also left a deep impression on him.

'It is indeed a calamity of the inner demon!'

My originally shaken mind regained its composure after hearing these two names.

"We have arrived at Qingyang Palace. Passengers getting off please prepare in advance."

The bus pulls into the station.

Granny Hu and He Min got off the bus at the same time. Chen Luo did not get off with them. He leaned against the window and took a look at Qingyang Palace Station outside.

Qingyang Palace is the landmark building of this city.

Many tourists from other places would come to Qingyang Palace Station to check in, which resulted in an unusually large number of people here. Chen Luo only saw a rough outline. There were people everywhere outside the green palace wall, and there was a long queue at the ticket office at the entrance. Beyond the palace wall, you can see some of the buildings inside. There is an ancient tower in the core area. The tower is seven stories high, and the tip is like a sword piercing the sky. Below is a green tree, and the leaves cover the area below the third floor of the tower.

Chen Luo plans to come here next time to take a look, maybe he can find some opportunities to "break the calamity".

"Qingyang Palace."

Chen Luo glanced at the card He Min handed him, which had a line of words written on it.

'Qingyang Palace marriage prediction, contact number 13X'

After putting the card away, Chen Luo closed his eyes and continued to practice Qi. Practice is a matter of perseverance, and with Chen Luo's state of mind, he would naturally not give up because of a small setback.

Soon the bus arrived at the big library.

Chen Luo got off the car and entered the library and began looking for the book he wanted to read.

"Inner demons and dreams?"

Chen Luo flipped through the books very quickly, and finished reading the history books in just half a day. When he turned to the folk ancient books, he suddenly stopped. Looking at the brown book in his hand, which had a completely different texture from other books, a strange feeling came over him again.

hiss

There was a sound of electricity flashing, and the light tubes in the library began to flicker.

The inner library, which was originally full of readers, was suddenly emptied out after the lights flickered a few times, and became deserted.

Chen Luo was the only one left in the whole world.

"I found you."

The voice came from the side of the bookshelf. Chen Luo put the book down and looked sideways. A strange man covered in a black robe walked out from the other side of the bookshelf. This man was covered in black air and had a distorted face, like a demon.

Bang!

Before he could speak again, Chen Luo suddenly raised his hand, and the five fingers of his right hand were like an iron hoop, grabbing his face. He grabbed the thickest dictionary next to him with his right hand, and smashed it down on the other person's head with the corners like a chessboard. (End of this chapter)
